"Risk as part of everyday life": John Crain, Chief Technical Officer ICANN:

Everyday more than a Billion people rely on the Internet to
conduct aspects of their daily life. Those who use the Internet
and those of us who operate the networks need to be more aware
of the risks. Mr. Crain will talk about some of the these risks.

While DNS is, perhaps, one of the most fundamental
components of a healthy and safe Internet it is, also,
vulnerable to a number of different types of
attacks. DNSSEC is an update to the traditional DNS
system. DNSSEC uses public-key cryptography to update the
DNS trust model to ensure DNS responses to requests from
clients.
